Hello, I'm French and I would ask you your opinion of American reels (lines 5).
I am interested in Ross Evolution or Nautilus FW, but I do not know the Nautilus.
How are they like in USA?
What do you think about Nautilus FW?
They are in my budget under $ 300.
I was interested in the Lamson Litesspeed but it exceeds my budget.

Thank you for your help.

I've used two Nautilus FW reels as my main trout reels for a few years, and I think they are great. Others who own them also love them, but the same is true of Ross Evolution reels. Either one is a great (and safe) buy.

I've used a Ross Evolution for my 5wt fishing for several years, and have loved it ... precise, well machined.

I use too a evolution 1.5 but i find it smaller

I have both; either model in a 5 weight size should last a long time under normal applications. Hard to say which one I like better as both perform as they should for reels in that price range.
